Chicago TARDIS: questions

[ghost2]

I know Chicago TARDIS isn't until November, but I'm thinking things through well ahead of time. I've never been to a convention, and I'm sick of saying, "Maybe next year." At that rate, I'll never get anywhere. I live only a few hours from Chicago; getting there is an attainable goal. It still might not happen, but I'm at least going to try this time.

So... I'd love to hear from anyone who went to Chicago TARDIS in previous years and/or plans to go there this year. What it's like? Do you recommend it? Anything special to keep in mind?

I went last year and will go every year for as long as my brother lives in Chicago. I've been to many, many different types of conventions in my day and ChiTARDIS is actually my favorite. Smaller than Gallifrey in LA and I spent most of the time drinking with the guests. All the Big Finish people and some of the telly people hang out in the bar and you can just go sit and chat with them. Geek to geek. Seriously, most fun I've ever had at a con.

ETA. And of course spending the weekend with Prof never gets old. ;-)

Sounds good. :) Right now, I'm planning on going unless something big happens to prevent it.
